You may have read the serialisation of Camer(one)'s biography in the papers this weekend, which on Saturday concentrated more on Boris than on Camerone.
Didn't anyone else think it weird that a book about Camerone had to be sold by stressing the amount of info about Boris inside it? I've written before about how Camerone is the only one from the Conservative Front bench who can guarantee news coverage. It doesn't look good when even he needs to borrow from Boris.
Anyway, a lot was written about how ambitious Boris is, leaving unasked the question of how willing Boris will be to sit happily in charge of London.
In this week's Regen and Renewal is a story about Boris' intention to stand down after only one-term (subscription required). Is this a shot across Camerone's bows? Has he been puffed up by the weekend's coverage and decided to fire a warning salvo at the leader?
Or is it simply true? Boris is going to stand down, become an MP again and challenge Camerone? after all, why else would you swap limitless power in the country's biggest city for an MP?
